Yes , Try The Tech has finished unfortunately.

It was a great scheme and allowed us to become more aware of a phones capability and how to set them up, giving us more experience on the community to advise and the reviews were helpful.

I would think it very difficult to track the devices and very time consuming for the admin. Maybe it will be re-introduced at some point in the future, only admin can answer that.

I heard that more than a few were never returned. Shame really that a good initiative was destroyed by greed of some.

It's a shame. I enjoyed doing that before not just phones but other stuff aswell. Hopefully one day they bring it back but only to old reviewers who returned the stuff and loyal o2 customers

Hi @Jdderby96! Happy New Year! Nice to see you back and lovely to hear that you enjoyed Try the Tech. slight_smile As mentioned above it hasn't been active for a while, but if it's reintroduced at any point this year, we'll surely let you know! slight_smile

If we ever did relaunch TTT, I'm curious what kinds of devices would you enjoy trying out, @Jdderby96 and everyone else? What was the best thing you liked about the activity?

I think under advertised devices like honor 10 Sony xz premium or similar.
Bluetooth headsets as the world is getting rid of headphone Jack's on phones
Things like that.
Bluetooth speakers and smart watches also they don't get the attention they deserve.

That is absolutely shocking and disgraceful. I did think at the time that this is likely to happen. There's no escaping human mentality and they have no idea of honesty!
